NGC 3576 is a minor nebula in the Sagittarius arm of the galaxy.

A popular nickname of the nebula is "The Statue of Liberty Nebula" because of the distinctive shape in the middle of the nebula. The name was first suggested in 2009 by Dr. Steve Mazlin, a member of Star Shadows Remote Observatory (SSRO).
